ABSTRACT:
A new pinball game includes a playing surface with a plurality of targets disposed on the playing surface. A player actuated flipper is used to propel a ball toward the targets thereby accumulating points in a first fashion. The pinball game also includes a track which has a first position wherein the ball rolls on the track and a second position wherein the ball is dropped off of the track. A mechanism is provided for positioning the ball on the track. At least one target associated with the track is located below the track. A sensor is connected to the target to detect engagement of the ball with the track associated target. The player actuates a button which causes movement of the track from the first position to the second position thereby dropping the ball off of the track. A memory is provided to store the point value of each track associated target each time such target is hit. The player uses the actuation button to try to drop the ball on or over the target.
